Impact of surface phase coexistence on the development of step-free areas on Si(111)
The step-flow growth condition of Si on Si(111) near the (7×7)-“1×1” surface phase transition temperature T C are analyzed within the framework of Burton-Cabrera-Frank theory. In particular, coexi...

Molecular Beam Epitaxy of Rare-Earth Oxides
We present results for crystalline lanthanide oxides on silicon with the Ln2O3 composition (Ln = Pr, Nd and Gd) in the cubic bixbyite structure grown by solid state molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). On Si(001)-orient...

Si1−x−yGexCy alloys: Growth and properties of a new semiconducting material
The growth and properties of Si1−y Cy and Si1−x−y GexCy alloys pseudomorphically strained on Si(001) is reviewed. Although the bulk solubility of carbon in silicon is sma...
